Yipin Tianxia

Chapter 97 Aftermath

Ouyang Jin told Tan very proudly, "This time Zhuang'er is the 170th and third. Although it is not too high, it is not too far behind the Queen Mother. The emperor has ordered that the three will be invited on the Mid-Autumn Festival in August. Hundreds of talented people went to the palace to receive the banquet. The nephew of the old Zhang family is also lucky this time. His family has no relatives. Well, we won’t be able to get in the queue. Or if there are fewer people coming, won’t we lose money?”

On this issue, Mrs. Tan maintained a high degree of unity with him, so she hurriedly said, "Today, the envoys from the Lu family came to give us a generous gift, and they are willing to help us with a few cooks. You know, they It’s not easy for family members to come out, and there are many daughters’ homes. I thought that Mo Ruo might as well be more generous this time, and just rent out the Qingyun Tower. It’s quiet and beautiful, and it faces the river behind. the water, and the eyes are opened."

Ouyang Jin nodded again and again, "This should be spent, and you can't be stingy. What about the troupe?"

Mrs. Tan paused with a smile, but quickly said, "If you want to hire a good troupe, you can spend a little more money. But I thought, if Qingyun Tower is contracted, the cost will be a lot more than that." There are quite a lot, and there are also clothes and accessories for Zhuang'er to enter the palace soon, and the master's new clothes for the festival, which is really too much. Master Mo Ruo came to make an idea, what do you think?"

Ouyang Jin thought about it, Tan's words were not deceitful, and after thinking about it, he gave up, "The troupe should be ordinary, but there must be a few special programs, so it can't look too shabby."

Tan breathed a sigh of relief, "I have thought about this too. At that time, I will find a few entertainers and put on some novel programs, so people will like to watch them if they want to come. Why don't you go and make a list of guests for the banquet earlier, so that you can send out invitations." .”

Ouyang Jin nodded and went to work on him.

Unexpectedly, Ouyang Kang came here.After tossing and turning, he still said, "I want to go back."

Ouyang Jin said impatiently, "Why do you have to go back when you're fine? But you're angry because you didn't catch up with the exam this time? Then I can tell you. I heard that the remaining candidates, the court may have further Arrangements, maybe you will have a second chance."

But Ouyang Kang lost interest, "No one can explain such a thing. It's already autumn, and it will pass after another winter. Grandma..."

Ouyang Jin frowned even deeper, "Don't be your grandma and grandma all the time. You're not a child who hasn't grown up, so you still can't live without your grandma? Listen to me, just stay at ease, and just listen to the arrangements for your father. That's right. I'll go Let me ask you, what musical instrument do you know?"

Ouyang Kang saw that it was a chicken-and-duck talk.I had to tell the truth, "I also learned piano from him for several years in the countryside."

Ouyang Jin immediately showed joy, "That's good, I have a Zhangqin here, you can use it to practice first, and on the day when your brother puts out the wine, you will have to come out and perform."

What?Ouyang Kang almost thought that his ears had misheard.To make him play the piano in public to please the crowd?Is he an actor?

But Ouyang Jin didn't care so much, stuffed Zhang Qin and sent him away.

Back to the yard with a sigh of relief.Nianfu came up again, "Eldest Young Master——"

"Stop barking, I'm in a bad mood!" Ouyang Kang threw the qin on the table and entered the room sullenly.

Nianfu took a look and followed, "Who messed with you?"

Sitting there, young master Ouyang felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, but he still couldn't bear it, so he said, "He asked me to come out and play the piano on the day when the second younger brother held a banquet!"

Nianfu laughed, "Then do you want me to knock on the gong? Do you think so?" She cleared her throat, and suddenly put on a charlatan style, learning the dialect of a certain celebrity and being serious Said, "I'm Mu Xiaofu, from Huai'an. I came to Guibao Land in order to find relatives and the young master. Unexpectedly, my father failed to find us, and we fell into a serious illness. We almost lost our lives! All the money on us was used up, so we had to Boldly show your ugliness and let the young master play a ditty for everyone. I hope that the masters, young masters, girls and aunts who came here today will show mercy and give a few rewards, so that we can raise the travel expenses for returning home. Great kindness to everyone, We will be cows and horses in the next life, and we must repay it!"

Young Master Ouyang was tense for a long time, but finally he couldn't hold back and smiled, "I know how to play tricks all day long, no one is serious!"

"Where is it?" Nianfu felt wronged, "Didn't I just make you laugh? This is called a psychologist, the most difficult thing to be. In fact, it's nothing to play the piano in public. It's like many young ladies gather together to compete for talent. Could it be Have you all become actors?"

Ouyang Kang looked at her suspiciously, "Where did you know this? The eldest sister told you?"

It's all from novels and TV shows, okay? "No matter what, let me tell you something serious, what do you think of me setting up a fan stand?"

Nianfu was shocked when he visited the night market that day.

She just sold barbecue once, and immediately others started to follow suit.Although the cooking is not as good as hers, but they are also baked decently, the key is that it is cheap.It immediately attracted some customers who had never eaten before, and started the business.

Among them, Aunt Xu was included.

When I met her at the night market that day, she was a little embarrassed, but Nianfu thought it through.Just like you sold steamed buns, is it only allowed to sell steamed buns in the whole world?impossible.It is not terrible to have imitation, as long as you can make a special feature, you can still attract people.

It's just that she doesn't have much interest in barbecue. One is that without Ruan Dahu and Zheng Sange, it is too troublesome to cut skewers, and the other is that there is too much smoke from the barbecue. Nianfu doesn't want to be smoked into a yellow face so early Po.

"It's autumn now, and it's time to eat duck. We don't make ducks, but only buy duck blood, and make duck blood sauerkraut vermicelli stew. The hot soup is cheap and delicious. What do you think?"

"Okay!" Outside the door, it was Miss Ouyang who deserved it.

But after taking a look at the clothes on her body and smelling the smell on her body, not only chanting blessings, even Ouyang Kang felt a bit like fleeing from disaster.

"How did you do this?"

Ouyang Mulan smiled apologetically, "It's all right, I just went to the kitchen to learn how to cook, and something happened. Brother, I'm going to eat at your place tonight, it happens to be Miss Mu, tell me about the fan pot. what."

Is it really a small situation?Doubt it!



At night, the night market in Nanshi is still bustling.

In particular, a large number of officials and nobles brought by the emperor to Xishan for summer vacation have returned to the city one after another, and the capital is even more lively, but something is different.

In Tianxiang Academy, a boy spit out the barbecue he just ate, patted the table and called Mama Liu, the bustard, "What are you doing? Don't think that the money is easy to fool, it's completely It's not the taste that I ate that day!"

Mama Liu's old face, which was heavily smeared with makeup, trembled, and she forced her mouth, "Why is it not smelling right? The whole street is the kebabs that our family brings with us. If you don't believe me, just ask and see if I have any. lie."

"I didn't say it wasn't your house. But I also came here to eat. It's much more delicious than this one. Tell the truth, have you changed the cook?"

Mother Liu faltered and said, "How can there be? They all use the same seasoning, maybe the meat has been replaced, so I'm not used to eating it? But how can such game be eaten every day?"

"Don't make excuses here!" Brother Gongzi stared at him, "Let the cook in the first place bake it again, otherwise, return this, I don't want it!"

Mother Liu was so forced that she kept making eye contact with the sister who was serving next to her.But the younger sister just started laughing, but was pushed away by the son, "Get out, don't come here. It's not a beautiful country. If it weren't for the fact that the barbecue here is not bad, who would come to join us?" ? Even if there is no good barbecue, I don’t care too much!”

Seeing him standing straight up and leaving without paying a penny, Mother Liu didn't dare to stop her even if she wanted to, and she didn't have the confidence to scold her. Just as she was struggling, another sister came in with a sad face, "Mom, Mr. Feng was not happy just now. Let’s go. Say that the meat we roast tastes bad, you should think of a way quickly!”

Mr. Gui, who was in charge of the accounting room, seemed to be afraid that the world would not be chaotic, so he also came to complain, "The roasted meat is basically unsalable these days, and more and more customers are returning. If you continue to pay this much, everyone will drink the northwest wind." .”

Mama Liu was in a state of desperation, and stomped her feet furiously, "Remove all the barbecue, pickle it with salt and eat it tomorrow. Go to a few other people and find Aunt Xu for me!"

The two guests who had just walked in next to me watched this scene and stopped.

The person in front said rather embarrassingly, "I heard that the barbecue here is good, and I wanted to invite you to try it, but I didn't know it was like this, which disappointed you."

The man in the back is not too tall, at least a head shorter than the one in front, but he has a calm demeanor. Although people don't notice him at first glance, they must be the last to notice him.

Hearing the words, he just smiled lightly, "With your thoughtfulness, anything is good to eat. Thinking about how we used to be in the battle of Jinzhou, we didn't even have oil and salt, and we killed a few rabbits from the mountains and forests, and we drank the broken wine in the village. The half-tank of residual wine taken out from the workshop, isn't it also a pleasure to eat and drink?"

The man in front also laughed when he heard it, and seemed to understand something, "If you are interested, why don't we go find the man who beat the rabbit? He is in Yirenfang now, not too far away. Since we came His territory, it is right for him to invite us to drink and eat meat!"

"Alright."

Seeing that the two turned around and left without even sitting down, the sister next to her who wanted to greet her felt even more sad. Although she was not a first-line red card, she was not at the point of aging. Think about the time when she was selling barbecue The feeling of being admired by the stars, compared with today's desertedness, is really unacceptable.

Thinking of this, she understood the minds of those whores a little bit. If you can get the best food here, who would accept it if you change it to something ordinary?

It's not terrible to be poor for a lifetime, what's terrible is to let a poor man get rich suddenly, let him taste the taste of wealth, and then let him live back to the old life, that's what really kills people.

My sister decided to go to Mother Liu and cry, no matter how expensive it is, let's invite back the chef who made the barbecue that day.Otherwise, how would you live this day! (To be continued.
